As a parent, Tom Patire realizes that the safety and welfare of a child is the number one concern of parents and guardians.  And that all children count on us to protect them!

Knowing that most children are not ‘safety conscious’ and will not know how to react in a potentially harmful situation, Tom Patire created a fun-filled NON-THREATENING safety program for kids.  Tom empowers children how to know and avoid the most common, harmful situations they may face between the ages of 5 - 12. 

This year, hundreds of thousands of children across the world will become victims of intentional or unintentional injuries, including a parent’s worst fear, child abduction.
